It was always hard for me to shine
and try to immortalize my name
the more and more i tried to change
the more and more things seemed the same
and playing a convincing role of one who does not care
but the truth is out, but oh the truth is out
i'm just like any other man
in a world of fancy i was plain
in a flowery plain i'd fancy trees
to shade the plotholes in the thoughts
that never took to coming clean
playing the unnerving role of "oh, so debonair"
but the truth is there, the truth is always there
that i'm just like any other man
but i'll play the poet and i'll sign an autograph
smile for the cameras with a wave to all the fans
yeah maybe i'm scared that what they've made me's what i am now
though i'm just like any other man
i'm just like any other man
and so i shined
and as i grew into my name
the more and more i seemed to change
the more i wished it'd stay the same
and playing a convincing role of one who does not care
but the truth is out, but oh the truth is out
i'm just like any other man
but i'll play the poet and i'll sign an autograph
smile for the cameras with a wave to all the fans
yeah maybe i'm scared that what they've made me's what i am now
though i'm just like any other man
i'm just like any other man
i am you are me i am any other man
i am you are me i am any other man
i am you are me i am any other man
but i'll play the poet and i'll sign an autograph
smile for the cameras with a wave to all the fans
yeah maybe i'm scared that what they've made me's what i am now
though i'm just like any other man
i'm just like any other man
i'm just like any other man
i'm just like any other man
it was always hard me to shine and try to immortalize my name.
